Quote:
Just as I passed, he suddenly went rigid in his seat. He stared at me again, meeting my eyes with the strangest expression on his face, it was hostile, furious.

Reaction:
I wonder what is wrong with Edward. Why is he looking at Bella in an unusual way? Was he trying to tell her something? Was he trying to tell her that she might be in danger? Is Bella in danger? Maybe Edward is just very aggressive.

Quote:
Edward Cullen was standing four cars down from me, staring at me in horror... Just before I heard the shattering crunch of the van folding around the truck bed, something hit me, hard, but not from the direction I was expecting... Then his hands moved so fast they blurred... But more clearly than all the yelling, i could hear Edward Cullen's low, frantic voice in my ear. "Bella? Are you all right?"

Reaction:
How did Edward save her life when he was just four cars away? I think its a little unusual to be saving someone's life when you are far away from them. Also, how did his hands move to quickly to say her?


Quote:
"Are you feeling faint?"( Mr. Banner ) "Yes sir," I muttered, internally kicking myself for not ditching when I had the chance. "Can someone take Bella to the nurse, please?" he called..."Wow, you're green, Bella," Mike said nevrvously. "Bella?" a different voice called from the distance... "Bella," Edward's voice was right next to me, relieved now. "Can you hear me?"...

Reaction:
How did Edward find out that she fainted in Biology so quickly? It was a good thing that he found out so that he could comfort her. Edward has a good side after all.

Quote:
"Do you know any of our old stories, about where we came from, the Quileutes, I mean?" he began. "Not really," I admitted... "Then there are the stories about the cold ones." His voice dropped a little lower. "The cold ones?" I asked, not faking my intrigue... I tried to keep my voice casual. "So how does that fit in with the Cullens? Are they like the cold ones your great-grandfather met?" "No." He paused dramatically. "They are all the same ones."... "And what are they?" I finally asked. "What are the cold ones?" he smiled darkly. "Blood drinkers," he replied in a chilling voice. "Your people call them vampires."

Reaction:
Could the Cullens be vampires? Is Edward a vampire? If he is, why didn't tell Bella when they became friends?

Quote:
First, I had to decide if it was possible that what Jacob had said about the Cullens could be true... Whether it be Jacob's cold ones or my own superhero theory, Edward Cullen was not... human. He was something more... And then the most important question of all. What was I going to do if it was true?

Reaction:
If Edward was a vampire, what would Bella do if it was true/ I hope she doesn't tell everyone. Well I think that he is a vampire and that he might do something to her if tells his secret, if he is a vampire. Wow! This story is intense!!!!! I love this story! So much detail and its so suspicious!
